A friend of mines grandfather recently turned 104 at his Birthday Party they asked him what is the secret to a long life he answered "Keep Living!!" Wow just KEEP LIVING....Thank You truly words of wisdom that spoke to me.

So when my friend Melissa ask to go to Build A Bear for her B Day I was happy and ready to go... What started out as a quick visit to make my friend happy turned out to be a 2 hour shopping spree at BAB!!

As soon as I walked into BAB I became a big kid seriously we had so much fun... so many cute Bear Outfits I lost my mind...lol So yeah I built a Bear!!!

And gave her a bath...lol

Meet me my new BAB Paris Hope couldn't decide on the name so she got two names . Lol Paris just wants to have fun and is ready for the world...you will see I had a awesome time.

I am super excited I finally received my Shin Han Art Markers from CTMH I love them :-)

Shin Han Art Touch Markers

* a shorter slim tip for your detail art projects
* shorter tips give you more control and makes coloring easier
* they also have broad tip which is perfect to color in large projects
* the colors are awesome and bright
* the marker stay moist and do not dry out easily
* they are also refillable
* the tips can be replaced similar to copics
* they are easy to hold while coloring

Shin Han Art Markers are very similar to Copics ... I used both markers and compared them I love how both images turned out...

1. This image was colored using copic markers

Copic colors are very similar to Shin Han Art Markers colors...one key difference is the tip....Copics comes with a brush tip and Shin Han Art comes with a fine tip. The brush tips do require a brush stroke when coloring to get a even coat. A brush tip is easier to use when trying to create shading and blending...you can change the tips in the Shin Han Art to a brush tip if you prefer.

2. This image was colored using Shin Han Art Markers

Shin Han Art Markers are easier to use especially for beginners. The short fine tips gives you lots of control you can easily stay in the line and color little details easily. They are a great marker for beginners just open and color. Shin Han Art Markers can also be used to blend and shade. The color is bright and vibrant it goes on evenly without a lot of effort.

This morning on my walk with Milo I had an epiphany I spend way to much time trying to please the worlds demands and not enough time taking in the beauty of the world around me...all the blessing God has given me so I took sometime to Just Be....I walked and enjoy the peacefulness of the morning the sun the flowers even the bees...what a awesome feeling give it a try :-)

Bees are so lucky they get to fly around and smell flowers all day :-)
